Hey folks, Kevin here. The name of the restaurant in Chicago with the amazing egg rolls is Chef's Special Cocktail Bar. Do you have a favorite egg roll, and if so, where? I'd love to know. --kevin
Cheng Du Restaurant in Mansfield, MA!, But yours look amazing!
I've had some good egg rolls over the years but yours look amazing. I would love to get your and your father's take on War Shu Gai.
I like an egg roll that is wrapped in rice paper or a an Vietnamese egg roll that has like a web/noodle wrapper
Where I grew up - a suburb of Chicago, about 45-60 min south - they add a bit of peanut butter to the mix! Apparently something started by Chicago and Pittsburgh (I think (edit: it's Philadelphia) restaurants! Makes a HUGE difference and it's hard to find anything else like it! I never knew what it was that made them special til it was pointed out as an allergy and it clicked. Makes sense, too - peanuts, sugar, and oil! I think I've only found one recipe in a cookbook out there to use it. Gotta call that restaurant to see if they'd give me the recipe, I miss them so much! Great article in the Chicago Tribune about it.
Don Mee's Restaurant in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada.
Lol, I love these two.
I do too!
Excellent video with clear explanations! However, the love and respect that this father & son duo have for each other is wonderful...it truly touches my heart!
This was sweet of you to say 💕 i agree
I've known my wife for almost 45 years, and she wouldn't eat egg rolls. Great, two for me.. Within the last 6 months, she tried one and now she loves them. Sometimes we'll stop at a random Chinese restaurant while on a Sunday drive and get a couple for snacks. Now when we order Chinese, she orders extras for the next day. Strange times.
Food looks great but the relationship with you two is perfection
Thank you for having Asian people talking about Asian food.
Our dipping sauce is usually one of our fruit jams (especially Plum, Peach, Apricot) with of bit of rice vinegar, or our carrot cake jam.
Yummy!
Wait, what is carrot cake jam? 😮
@@travis5481 i didn't catch that! Never heard of it. Sounds absolutely mouthwatering.
@@travis5481 Carrot Cake Jam, is a Ball book recipe for hot water bath canning, no pressure cooker needed. It's exactly the sweet carrot, raisin jam without any cake.
I mix the hot mustard into sweet and sour sauce and then dip. Yum
Sweet chili sauce is my favorite to dip - my husband combines white vinegar and minced garlic! That really packs a punch! I never get takeout egg rolls anymore! Have been making them for years at home! Will be trying your recipe Kevin! So sweet that your father is proud of you - and tells you so! =]
It took me back to my early teen years when I’d help my stepdad roll these. His cooking was the best! ♥️🙏🏻♥️
That intro was priceless!
I've made these a few times already, and I have a couple of tips
For the wrappers: Use "TYJ Spring Roll Pastry" wrappers from Spring Home. They're in the frozen section.
It's quite a bit of time and effort to make the filling, so make a double batch.
Use 1/3 cup instead of 1/4 cup for bigger, plumper egg rolls
Yes, you can make them in the air fryer, but they're kind of dry. 400 deg for 20 min.
If making to freeze, fry them in oil for 3 min, let them cool, then freeze. They'll be perfect for the air fryer, since they're nice and oiled up.
Oh my! I really love these guys. Best thing on this channel.
Kevin and Jeffrey are such a treasure. Thanks for everything you do! I love making your recipes!
You literally read my mind! I searched for egg rolls from Hunger Pangs about 45 minutes ago!
Great video. You and your dad have an endearing relationship.With your voice you could be some kind of broadcaster! Very smooth
I come here for the father-son feel goods, and stay for the recipes!❤
Mmmmm Those egg rolls look so good. I'd love to see what you'd do for authentic Hong Kong style spring rolls. I'll bet those are good too.
I love to see how proud Dad is of his son. You can see how happy it makes him that his son is carrying on family traditions. Dad's lessons obviously didn't go to waste.
Love the family relationship. Dad is so sweet ❤
I love the Pangs! I appreciate that they're frying in the wok but as they pointed out maintining the temperature can be a pain. For that reason I recommend using a small electric fryer, or at the least maybe just doing three at a time.
Recipe sounds good. Will most likely try. 😊 Father, Son combo make things look so easy. ❤💚💜🧡💛💙
I normally do 3 at a time. 6 at a time seems like it would make the oil cool too much, especially if you're making from frozen. I do all my deep frying in a sauce pan in small batches.
My Mom’s are my favorite..celery onions bean sprouts chicken shrimp cha Siu pork and dried shitake mushrooms…all cooked before rolling and frying. My Dad would mix up the hot mustard.. He would grill the Char Siu on a charcoal BBQ after marinating for 3 days. Your version looks like an interesting Americanized Chef version, which would be good for everyday cooking. Enjoy your efforts to share Chinese cooking.
I'm jealous! Sounds absolutely divine!
Love watching you guys! How endearing when you call him “ Pops” ! Recipes always so easy and appetizing!
I make something similar, but cook the pork ahead of time with some fresh ginger, dont add sugar, use more oyster sauce and add a little peanut butter. No lard, no noodles, mung bean sprouts, a little onion. I cant find grocery store hot mustard that I like, so I have been using candied halapeno peppers instead. I love egg rolls!
Chinese restaurants have packets of hot mustard.
Go online and find the powdered stuff. It's what all the Chinese restaurants use for hot mustard! Super cheap too. -kevin
The use of shrimp and ground pork is the base for a Filipino Spring roll, what we call in the Philippines “Lumpia Shanghai”. Lumpia is basically Amoy, Fujianese inspired dish that was introduced by Chinese workers / traders from the time our country was under Spanish Colonization. It has been voted one of the world best type of Spring Roll and is eaten traditionally with a garlic / soy sauce infused sweet and sour sauce. It is a staple on the Filipino table for big celebrations and parties.
In Australia we have spring rolls. Whenever I used to hear people mention egg rolls on American TV shows, I thought they were talking about some sort of bread roll.😂 Great video!
Excellent teaching!!!
Another amazing Hunger Pangs production! It’s time the Pangs open their own restaurant!
Great video
Kevin Pang is a Chicago food OG, and now we learn he is incredible on camera. Love to see it!
Mr Kevin and Dad, I really enjoyed hearing you both as your demonstration in preparing Asian recipes. The respect and honor you share with your father is beautiful as a good example for us all. I love cooking with my wife sometimes children. I will make time in near future to prepare these egg rolls 😋. Thank you for your time as recipes. 😊 with all due respect. 😔
👏🏻👏🏻 glad father n son are back baby!!!!!! These two should be on EVERY DAY OR WK. I love sweet spicy sauce w my egg rolls. Yum recipe.
Those egg rolls look so delicious! My favorite way to eat egg rolls is with sweet & sour sauce and Chinese mustard. I love how spicy the mustard is but mixed with the sweet & sour sauce it calms it down a bit.
Thank You.Kevin & Dad..another recipe ❤❤GBU
I LOVE this series
Amazing video as usual, as an American in Europe who misses American Chinese food this is a lifesaver. One request: is it possible for you to share the weights of at least the dry ingredients?
You two are awesome! Love your videos. My favorite sauce for egg rolls is the duck sauce you find in the northeast. I live in California and we don't have it out here. Would love it if you did a short video on making that and the mustard. My favorite egg rolls came from 2 restaurants by were I grew up...Hong Luck in Levittown, PA and China Moon in Bensalem, PA
Hey homey!
I love watching them ❤
Thank you so much!
Great video! Thank you ! I LOVE egg rolls just like that ! Very crispy ! Hello from Pennsylvania
Thanks guys. This looks like a perfect recipe for American style egg rolls.
I saw Jeffery wince at the end when Kevin mixed everything back in the big mixing machine. I think he wanted that bowl and a wooden spoon to do a quick easy mix job. Mixers are nice but not everybody has one.
I wonder what Mom thinks of American egg rolls?
so good! thanks Jeffrey, Kevin, and the whole ATK crew
Love Hunger Pangs! ❤
Oh my gosh I adore these 2!! :)
Excited for the cookbook 🙌
My Favorite Dipping Sauce for Egg Rolls Is Sweet & Sour Sauce, & Got Mustard Sauce! Yum🥰
I just LOVE watching you two! Thank you for your videos.
I love egg rolls! (Not so much spring rolls which taste greasy to me.)My favorite dipping y is the hot mustard with a mix of plum sauce to temper the heat.
Yeah for me I just love the thicker, more toothsome wrapper of an egg roll. I like spring rolls, too, but I find the egg roll wrapper so much more satisfying.
Love egg rolls. I mix A1 sauce with some ketchup for a sauce for them.
I love to dip mine in duck sauce. This is served everywhere on the East Coast. But whenever I visit California the Chinese restaurants have no idea what I am talking about.
I never thought of adding lard to enhance the texture! Nice tips
Hey guys, I love your cooking segments together. Egg rolls look great. You make it look almost easy. I’ve made egg rolls before with varying success, so I’m anxious to try your recipe. I’m shocked, though, that no one has mentioned Pailin’s Kitchen recipe for Thai Sweet Chile/Chili Sauce from about 5 years ago. I always make this when our farmer’s market has red chiles, and I always keep it in the fridge for anytime I need an Asian dipping sauce. It lasts forever in a jar in the fridge. I love spicy mustard that knocks your socks off too, but try Pailin’s simple recipe if you love sweet and sour! (Is it wrong to dip Chinese/American egg rolls in a Thai sauce?)
Sounds incredible
I’ll definitely try this recipe! It’s like a dumpling filling inside an egg roll wrapper! Yum! The dipping sauce we use in the northeast US is duck sauce and hot yellow mustard like the stuff that you’re using
So sweet these two!!!! 🥢💕
Thank you gentlemen. I can’t wait to give it a go soon.
I love them all. Haven’t had a bad one yet. I did make some pretty good homemade ones a few times. I like to dip them in plum sauce or soy sauce.
How do you prepare your plum sauce?
I am inspired to make this recipe! Thanks, Pangs.
You guys are the best thing to happen to ATK!
This was informative and entertaining. The love and admiration between this father and son really made it a joy to watch.
Made these tonight. I was very glad for the video showing how to fold/roll them up. They were absolutely amazing, that filling just pops, even without dipping it in anything, but it hold up against sweet and sour or hoisin. These will definitely make it onto the meal rotation here.
Another great video, these look so good! Can't wait to try!
thank you for the episode.. I love hunger Pangs
I love all your videos.Looks yummy and perfect.
I think that eggroll is best with sweet and sour sauce
Always nice when Dad gives his approval. Those egg rolls look absolutely delicious. We’re you using Colman’s mustard?
I volunteer if you ever want taste testers to back up your Dad’s evaluation.
Cooks magazine just did a review of fish sauce. Would you do a review of soy sauce and/or other Chinese sauces?
I drooled on my shirt watching this- do I send the dry cleaning bill to ATK or to Kevin?
Great vid. "Kevin's Dad😊" really knows his stuff!
You two are cute and funny.
Love it.
Soooo happy you 2 guys made another recipe segment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The very best egg rolls are from The Golden Palace restaurant in Ottawa Ontario Canada. People who remember them have them shipped to many cities in the United States States!
The Ferry Building in San Francisco has the Imperial Tea House. They have fantastic egg rolls. I like them with either hot or sweet chili dipping sauces depending on my mood or a bit of both back and forth. Yum.
Best egg roll video on the internet. Thanks guys.
My dipping sauce of choice is Thai chili sauce or home made duck sauce and Chinese mustard.
I HAVEN'T had a good egg roll in forever!!😭 Every restaurant I've tried??🤨 It's NOTHING BUT the wrapper with maybe a HALF to max a TEASPOON OF filling!!!😳 I, literally, end up just UNwrapping them and THAT goes to my dogs!!🙌 I only get the ridiculous tiny, tasteless, itty bitty nub of filling!!😒 AND at $2 a piece??!?🤨 NO thank you!!!👎 But I'm definitely going to try THIS recipe and just make at home myself!!🙌 Thank you guys for posting this and educating ALL OF us!!!🙌❤ It's such a joy to watch you two in action!!!🙌😂❤ Such a hoot!!! 🤣👍😊❤️❤️❤️
I don’t want them, I need them!
Just WOW! I need to try this. Awesome!
My favorite to dip is duck sauce. I also add a tiny drop of Worcestershire sauce. Tastes great
They make such a great team; I love watching their clips.
Excellent video & recipe... I very much enjoy watching The Pangs... please more video's featuring them!
Fabulous instructions! I love eggrolls! 😊🩵
Growing up in Boston, egg rolls were filled with char siu rather than ground pork, and celery was used in place of of cabbage. Gave them an entirely different flavor profile. Either way they were delicious
I bought a spider after watching the shrimp toast video and have found it to be an extremely useful tool in the kitchen. Just used it for gnocchi the other day.
🕸YES! Infinitely useful kitchen tool! And inexpensive. Chopsticks too!
I just had shrimp egg foo young and fried rice for dinner. They give us a tiny egg roll with our meal. I am going to use this to start making my own.
I just love watching you and your dad!
I've made 2 batches now. Absolutely amazing. When I do the final mix of the meat, veggies, and noodles it releases an aroma straight from heaven. Or China. Either way, you'll know you've got something amazing coming together.
Drooling at my keyboard for these egg rolls!
Great recipe!
I prefer to dip mine in a mixture of hot mustard and duck sauce.
Excellent video gentlemen! I agree the pork fat gives so much flavor. I am going to make your recipe, THANK YOU!!!
"Duck sauce" orangish in color, sweet and slightly vinegary, gelatinous which, on a hot/warm egg roll spreads itself thin and into crust covering. Enjoyed dad-son dynamic, method discussion and general repartee.🎉😊❤
wow can. hardly wait for all these great recipes.
Absolutely delicious 😋 😍
Great video. Can’t wait to try making my own egg rolls.
I really enjoy these two!
Thanks for this! I really enjoy the relationship between the two of you.
Hunger pangs is a great series
Such wonderful helpnon this channel ❤️ 😍
You two give me heart pangs 😊
The names are always a bit confusing. Here in Australia, Chinese restaurants sell spring rolls with a thinner, crispier, almost wonton like wrapper. Vietnamese style spring rolls are called summer rolls, or often just rice paper rolls.
I finally got to visit the USA this year and had to try egg rolls. The thick blistery wrapper was a bit too much for me but it was still pretty good. My experience is only one meal from PF Changs but I'm coming back again next year and happy to try some more.
If you can, try to visit a US city that still has a Chinatown. If you hunt around and ask locals you are likely to find really good food that's not quite as "standard commercial" as PF Changs.
PF Changs -- Haiya. When in USA go to low-rent strip mall and look for someone in the back of restaurant hand-making rolls, dumplings. If you don't see that, continue your journey until you find that heavenly home-made taste.
@@miseentrope I hear you. I’m going to be driving and exploring much more than focusing on any one place. There is just so much to see. It means I’m almost certain to try a Panda Express on the side of an interstate but I’ll also do my best to follow your advice.
@@gnomevoyeur For your own sake, please do not even TRY Panda Express.
@@miseentrope I see someone is channeling Uncle Roger. 🤣
This yellow cake with daisies looks great. You're making progress. 🎉 Keep it up.😊
What a way to mention my hometown, Chi-Town! My city has the best food!
I live in Kenosha now, and we have many Chinese restaurants like Yee's Oriental Inn and my favorite, Chen's Bistro!
I put sweet and sour sauce on my egg rolls
Sweet and sour sauce made with pineapple juice is my favorite
These eggs rolls look amazing!
One of my favorite foods, yum.
Egg rolls for breakfast is the best!
